Abstract
We had just concluded an editor’s meeting of Behavioural Pharmacology where she was uncharacteristically absent, when we were shocked by the news of Emily Jutkiewicz passing in September 2024. Emily had been Associate Editor of Behavioural Pharmacology since 2021, being primarily responsible for manuscripts from the USA and Canada. Emily obtained her BSc degree in 1997 from Tufts University. As one of Klaus Miczek’s students, it is no wonder she developed a fascination for behavioural pharmacology, a specialty she further developed under the guidance of Jack Bergman at McLean Hospital, Harvard Medical School. With Jack’s unwavering support, she rapidly developed an interest in opioid pharmacology and drug addiction, fields of research she stayed true to until her untimely death. In 1999, she moved to the University of Michigan to pursue a PhD. With her strong interest in opioids and addiction, it was no surprise she entered the lab of James Woods, a world-renowned expert in both areas of research. Professor Woods’ laboratory has been a training ground for numerous leaders in behavioural pharmacology and it was no different with Emily. By the time she obtained her PhD, she was among those who were basically running the Woods laboratory on a day-to-day basis. And, when others moved on as postdocs or as young faculty to start their own research enterprises, Emily decided to put her roots down in Michigan, continuing to manage the Woods laboratory and, at the same time, advancing her very own burgeoning program. This was not an easy course to follow but it quickly became clear that Emily’s intelligence, sense of humour, and genuine kindness were a winning combination—for her students, for Michigan’s Department of Pharmacology, and for the field of behavioural pharmacology at large. Her meticulous time management coupled with her immense scientific curiosity and creativity made her the obvious choice for a faculty position in 2012, and 10 years later, she was named Associate Chair for education at the University of Michigan. Throughout her tenure at the University of Michigan, Emily was a wonderful mentor for her students, supervising close to 30 postgraduate and hundreds of undergraduate students. For her outstanding work in this area, she was awarded the Master’s Mentoring Award from the University of Michigan Rackham Graduate School. Most recently, she was appointed honorary Chair, the Pfizer/Upjohn Research Professor of Translational Pharmacology, a position she was supposed to be inaugurated to in November of 2024. Emily’s research showcased the value of multidisciplinary research, often combining behavioural pharmacology with molecular biology. Her focus was on opioid pharmacology but her research went far beyond opioid drug addiction and addressed many other facets of opioid biology, especially the utility of delta opioids as (potential) medications for pain and depression, as well as their propensity for inducing side effects. One important aspect of Emily’s work was to show that different intracellular pathways underlie the analgesic and convulsive effects of delta opioids, thus paving the way for the discovery of safer analgesic drugs. Emily joined Behavioural Pharmacology as Associate Editor in 2021 when she took over the role from her mentor Jack Bergman. During her tenure as Editor, she was diligent and conscientiously worked hard to ensure the high quality of behavioural pharmacology research reports from North America published in Behavioural Pharmacology, and by extension the quality of the research itself. When associate editor Paul Willner passed away in October 2023 and, a short time later, Louk Vanderschuren stepped down as Editor-in-Chief, Emily was unwavering in her support for the journal. It is largely thanks to her that the new editorial team could take over in a reasonably effortless manner. During our editorial meetings, Emily was always very active with great ideas about the future direction of the journal. Her laughter and her optimism will be sorely missed by all who knew her, but most directly by her husband David, her sons Jack and Sam, and the rest of her family.
